DOS Games Discussion

I know the game I am looking for, I simply cannot locate it. The game was called Dirt Bike (I played version 3.0) and it was developed by Brad Quick. The game was a 2D sidescrolling game where you had to drive a dirt bike across the bumpy terrain as fast as possible. I used to play it in the late 90's on Win95-98.

The only copies I can find are for Mac, I am looking to get a copy for PC. Any ideas? Thanks.

This is what Google found:

Yeah that looks like its for Mac, I could do an emulation but would like to avoid it if possible

Ah, sorry, I didn't realize you don't need the Mac version.

[Edit] Here's what is claimed to be the trial 4.4 version for the Windows platform:

[Edit 2] Another one on FilePlanet, could be the same thing:

One is the 3D version that came after the one I am looking for. The other one downloads an invalid zip file and I cant do anything with it.

I do appreciate the effort though, seriously. I have spent 2-3 hours trying to find this game. On a side note, the 3D version is pretty fun....

Anyone?

I remember playing a game called something like Dirt Bike where you could control the amount of throttle by pointing the cursor at different heights on the screen. Also it was possible make custom dirt bikes by adjusting their wheels, suspension and stuff.

Does this description match the game? If it does, I might have it on a CD, though 160 km away from me at the moment.

EDIT: Managed to not suck at googling, that's the same game. Found a newer version though: http://www.mbnet.fi/artikkelitiedosto/4685/DIRTBI44.ZIP

DOOD thats it! Thanks a lot! You are the man!

More than 10 years later, the links mentioned here are not valid anymore. Thankfully googling the filename "DIRTBI44.ZIP" took me to

Which contains this forgotten gem

Nice, thanks for sharing this!

I fixed the link.
